The Attorney General and minister for justice, Godfred Yeboah Dame says no docket fit for prosecution has been built yet on the murder of the late Ahmed Hussein Suale.
He explained that since his assumption of duty, the case of Ahmed Suale and other unresolved high-profile murders have been on top of his priorities.
He assured the nation that although investigations leading to prosecution have been slow, Ahmed Suale will most definitely get justice.
The Minister made this known when he appeared in Parliament to answer questions filed by MP for Madina, Francis Xavier Sosu.
”It is worthy to know that it is a matter being investigated by the criminal investigations department of the Ghana Police Service. No docket or document fit for prosecution has been built and presented to my office since the murder”, Godfred Dame stated.
The Member of Parliament for Tamale North, Alhassan Suhuyini, has strongly criticised the Minister of Justice and Attorney General, Godfred Yeboah Dame for comments he made on the murder of investigative journalist, Ahmed Suale in Parliament on Tuesday.
Mr Dame, among other things, stated that no docket fit for prosecution or action has been submitted to his office over the murder and seemed to suggest the journalist’s murder may have been linked to other activities other than his media work.
While answering questions on the floor of Parliament, Mr Dame asserted that the death of Ahmed Suale may have been related to some other activities beyond Suale’s journalism.
Addressing the media after parliamentary proceedings, the Tamale North MP bemoaned the blatant disregard for the circumstances that led to the murder and described the minister’s comments as irresponsible.
“We know how people sat on TV and threatened him, revealed his identity, and urged for him to be beaten and for the minister to ignore all these circumstances and suggest that his murder may have been something else is very irresponsible.
“As journalists, we must be worried because it may have been Ahmed Suale in 2019, it could be me or you in 2025, and we may just be told that your death was a result of a family feud or a fight with a trotro driver on the street.”
